The present invention relates to a laundry processing apparatus and a control method therefor, and to a laundry processing apparatus having a plurality of washing parts for performing washing independently of each other, the apparatus: determining whether the plurality of washing parts simultaneously perform washing; and determining whether a simultaneous operation is performed on the basis of the time required when water is supplied, so as to determine an error for the simultaneous operation on the basis of a standard different from an error determination standard during a single operation, thereby reducing the errors frequently occurring because of the simultaneous operation in a normal state.

A method of controlling a laundry treatment apparatus includes: determining whether bubbles have been generated in a tub of the laundry treatment apparatus in a state in which a second washing apparatus of the laundry treatment apparatus is operated based on a sequence of operations; and based on a determination that bubbles have been generated, reducing bubbles by (i) adding at least one first operation to the sequence of operations or (ii) replacing at least one second operation of the sequence of operations.

A laundry treating apparatus having a tub, a drum rotatably mounted inside the tub, at least one electrical powered element mounted in the drum, a wireless power transmitter unit and a wireless power receiver unit. The wireless power receiver unit supplies power to the electrical powered element.

An apparatus for a laundry treating appliance including a first basket defining a first treating chamber for receiving laundry for treatment according to a selected cycle of operation. A first clothes mover can be provided in the first treating chamber. A removable basket assembly can include a second basket with a second clothes mover. A transmitter can be included in the removable basket assembly for operably coupling the second clothes mover to the first clothes mover.

A washing machine appliance, including methods of operation, is provided herein. The washing machine appliance may include a cabinet, a tub positioned within the cabinet, a wash basket, and a nozzle assembly. The nozzle assembly may be mounted within the cabinet and configured to provide wash fluid to the tub. The nozzle assembly may include an extendable nozzle, a valve assembly, a retractable fluid supply conduit, a supplemental heater, and a temperature sensor. The extendable nozzle may define a fluid path between a nozzle inlet and a nozzle outlet. The valve assembly may be configured to provide a flow of wash fluid to the extendable nozzle. The supplemental heater may be positioned in thermal communication with the flow of wash fluid between the valve assembly and the nozzle outlet. The temperature sensor may be positioned in thermal communication with the flow of wash fluid downstream from the valve assembly.

Provided are a washing apparatus that is capable of being operated in an Internet of Things (IoT) environment over a 5G communication network and estimating additional laundry that is introduced and the amount of detergent that is additionally introduced based thereon through a neural network model generated based on machine learning, and a method of controlling the same.

The disclosure provides a washing machine and method for controlling the same. An embodiment of the washing machine includes an auxiliary washing unit placed below a door arranged on top of a main body; an input unit for receiving instructions to start and stop auxiliary washing; and a water supply unit for supplying water to the auxiliary washing unit if the instruction to start water supply is input, and stopping supplying water to the auxiliary washing unit if the instruction to stop water supply is input.

The present invention relates to a clothes treatment apparatus and, more particularly, to a clothes treatment apparatus for directly heating a drum accommodating clothes. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, provided is a clothes treatment apparatus comprising: a tub; a drum, made of a metal, which accommodates clothes and is rotatably provided inside the tub; and an induction module, provided in the tub so as to have a spacing from a circumferential surface of the drum, for generating an electromagnetic field to heat the circumferential surface of the drum, wherein the induction module comprises: a coil which is formed by winding a wire such that electric current is applied thereto to generate a magnetic field; and a base housing mounted on an outer circumferential surface of the tub, wherein the base housing is provided with a coil slot for defining the shape of the coil in such a manner that the wire is mounted therein so as to have a predetermined distance between wire and wire.

A washing machine includes communicator, a display, a sensor for detecting a water temperature of residual water of the washing machine, and a processor. When the water temperature is equal to or lower than a first temperature, the processor is configured to receive data regarding a temperature of an area where the washing machine is located from an application server. The processor is configured to transmit the received data regarding the temperature to a data server so that the received data regarding the temperature is transmitted to a user terminal device. When the water temperature is equal to or lower than a temperature that is lower than the first temperature, the processor is configured to display a notification regarding freezing of the washing machine. The processor is configured to transmit the notification to the application server so that the notification is transmitted to the user terminal device.
